  1. 6mm Remington

    243 energy

    I have shot a LOT of pronghorn antelope and mule deer with a 6mm Remington. It is deadly on them and I have also taken one elk with my 6mm Remington. It's a great cartridge for deer, antelope sized game. Go forth using good bullets and it will work great. I have complete confidence in...

    Massive forky muleys pic thread

    Technically he had just enough point length to make him a 3x4 but essentially he was just a big two point on his way down. Biologist said I can age them pretty accurately to 10 1/2 years of age. He said has was that old and more. Buck in the front. You can see the broad nose and white face...

    My once in a lifetime grizzly bear hunt on the north side of the Brooks Range with Ovis Outfitters. They are great folks that really take care of their hunters and my guide was first class. He is a native Alaskan who has guided grizzly bear hunters now for about 32 years. Mike Lettis is his...

    Need suggestions on rifle post cervical fusion

    Winchester .243 with a good 90 - 100 gr. bullet would work great. H4350 or IMR4350 with 90 gr. E-tip, 90 gr. Accubond, or 100 gr. Partition would all serve you well. Good luck.

    Why & what do you handload?

    My father started me reloading under his watchful eye when I was 12 years old. I am now 65 and I have never shot anything but my reloads for hunting since that time. I only load for my rifles. We have 3 6mm Remingtons in the family, 280AI, 30-06, and 300 WSM. It just adds more meaning to...

    The classic magnums - will they see a renaissance?

    I built a Model 70 Classic Sporter into a 280AI. Love that rifle and cartridge.

    Another From ID

    Way to go. It was year number 47 in a row here in Montana and still no success on drawing a moose or sheep tag. Next years the year though!

    Wolves need managed!

    They don't need to be wiped out but there needs to be measures taken that would allow hunting and trapping of wolves to help keep them wild and keep numbers in check...
  11. 6mm Remington

    Nice rifle for a teenager to pass down

    A new Ruger Hawkeye Hunter would be sweet also. 6.5 PRC, .308, or 30-06 would all be great for your son. https://ruger.com/products/Hawkeye/overview.html

    Nice rifle for a teenager to pass down

    How about a Montana Rifle Company Junction model in 6.5 PRC or .308 Win? https://montanarifleco.com/rifles/junction/
  13. 6mm Remington

    Nice rifle for a teenager to pass down

    How about a Ruger 1B in 6mm Remington since you reload! You would have to find a used one but man are they great rifles. I have one and love it in 6mm Remington. It shoots great, is nice to carry, and is gorgeous. I also have the same model in 30-06. Same same as indicated. There are...
  14. 6mm Remington

    Question for the 30 cal guys

    150gr. Nosler E-tip would be a great bullet if you want a mono. 165gr. or 180gr. Accubond would be fantastic as well. 165gr. or 180gr. Partition would also work very well. As someone once said a Partition is never a mistake.
  15. 6mm Remington

    Double-tapping with a .243 vs one shot with 30-06?

    My son has used the 90gr. Nosler E-tip in his 6mm Remington which is a Ruger MKII with a 22" barrel with great success. He has taken if I remember correctly 3 antelope with one shot each. Shot distances right about 300 yards. One buck deer roughly 200 yards one shot. Also a nice big cow elk...
